Steak; Beef Burgers; Barbecuing Guide - Weber Summit E-670 Handbook

The following chart gives a guide to how well done your meat will be, based on the internal temperature
of the meat. The internal temperature of the meat should be measured with a meat thermometer. You can
estimate when your food will be ready, but the meat thermometer confirms it for you. The thermometer
should be inserted into the thickest part of the meat, avoiding any bone. Most standard meat thermometers
will give you an accurate reading in a matter of seconds or minutes, so it is a good idea to only use the
thermometer when you think the meat is cooked.

The following cuts, thicknesses, weights and barbecuing times are meant to be guidelines rather than
hard and fast rules. Cooking times are affected by such factors as altitude, wind, outside temperature and
how well done you like your meat. Two rules of thumb: cook steaks, fish fillets, boneless chicken pieces
and vegetables using the direct method for the time given on the chart, turning once, halfway through
cooking. Cook roasts, whole poultry, bone in poultry pieces, whole fish and other thicker cuts using the
indirect method.
Cooking times for beef and lamb are for MEDIUM unless otherwise noted. Let roasts and larger cuts of
meat rest for 5 to 10 minutes before carving.
